The classic Teema 0.3L mug now features a warm vintage brown shade. Designed by Kaj Franck in 1952, Teema was unique at that time for its simplicity. Over the years, Teema has proven to be a versatile tableware collection serving generations. Its vintage translucent brown colour lends dishes a distinct and enduring charm. Mix and match this new shade with white, linen, or vintage blue to create your own combination.
Consider a consumer in the 1940s imagining how their new traditional dinner set should appear. The set, during that era, generally consisted of approximately 30 to 72 pieces, including a large soup serving bowl. The main focus was to have a specific piece for each product to meet various needs.
What Kaj Franck did was practically the complete opposite of the current trends. He identified the needs and then created the smallest possible set to meet all essential serving requirements with a minimal number of dishes, introducing multifunctionality into lifestyle and mindset. In the 1950s, he introduced just eight pieces. Today, Iittala offers 22 products inspired by this concept.
The Teema collection is crafted from vitro porcelain, one of the hardest types, and is available in modern styles with shades of ivory white and other colours. The fundamental, longest standing colours are white and blue, produced since 1952, and black, which was introduced in 2009. Mainstay colours in the collections endure, whereas short-term colours may change every few years, sometimes annually. Since Iittala's philosophy centres on longevity, the colours not only evolve over years but frequently return to the market unchanged after a few years. Natural colours foster harmony and stability in an otherwise unstable world. The primary purpose of attractive colours is to capture attention and inspire the consumer.
The collection, radical for its time, was originally introduced in early 1952 as 'Kilta'. It re-entered the collection in 1981 under the new name 'Teema'.
